Peace is about understanding what we are: socio-cultural practices of peace in Quibdó
Journal Title: RHS-Revista Humanismo y Sociedad - Year 2021, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents the research findings of the project Socio-cultural Practices of Peace in Quibdó (Prácticas socioculturales de paz en Quibdó), which aims to contribute to understanding peacebuilding out of the daily life of communities from the capital of Chocó. A contextualized analysis of Quibdó is proposed regarding peacebuilding from cultural practices. This qualitative research study unfolds a hermeneutic phenomenological methodology. The information analysis was carried out by triangulating information, with primary and secondary sources, through ten semi-structured, in-depth interviews. The axial and categorical coding was carried out using the ATLAS.ti software, version 7.5. The study found that the recognition of peace from a territorial approach based on daily cultural practices allows both resignification of memory and appropriation of social environment, historical memory and non-violence. The study concludes that socio-cultural practices of peace make it possible to demonstrate the vindication of the "Afro" and the "Chocoano", thus recognizing the need to integrate aspects such as gender, ethnicity and social commitment in coexistence with others.
